Premieres and openings: Kazan lights up new stars
This evening will become a real platform for experiments with sound, where famous stage masters and promising newcomers to the Russian stage will present their unique projects and debut works.
"Premiere Day" is a concept in which performers will perform compositions that have not yet been performed on stage: new singles, fragments from upcoming albums, or even original versions of famous hits. You will be able to see your favorite artists in unexpected roles and hear them in musical styles that are completely new to them. The evening promises to be a dynamic combination of different genres and generations.
Key figures of the Russian pop scene will gather on one stage: Philipp Kirkorov, Irina Allegrova, Grigory Leps, Sergey Lazarev, Anna Asti, Artur Chumakov, Liza Chebotina, Tatyana Kurtukova, Lolita Milyavskaya and IOWA.
On August 23, the "Day of Premieres" will take place in Kazan at the "New Wave": this will not be just a concert, but an immersion into the world of Russian musical art. Here, future hits are born, and performers reveal their new sound. Buy tickets for this second competition day of the "New Wave" festival in the New Wave Hall right now on our website. Don't miss your chance to witness the creation of new history!
